Project Tamriel is proud to announce the first full release of

Abecean Shores

Ys09ASlNy4U

Abecean Shores will bring players far from Morrowind to the western coasts of Cyrodiil, the Imperial Province. These lands are ruled by the Kingdom of Anvil, the largest and richest of the Colovian realms. At the kingdom's heart sits the mighty city of Anvil itself, an enormous port metropolis binding the Imperial heartland to the myriad lands of the West. In the plazas, alleys, temples, and wharfs of Anvil, players will find scores of memorable characters, handcrafted interiors, and intricate quests that breathe life into an entirely new piece of Tamriel.

Beyond the walls of Anvil city, the kingdom rules over two distinct hinterlands. To the east, players will explore the rainy Strident Coast and Dasek Marsh, a fertile swathe of countryside which hosts the town of Brina Cross and a number of smaller villages, farms, and ranches. Beyond the placid lowlands, these interior lands offer opportunities for adventure - and danger. Crumbling ruins of the ancient Ayleid and Reman empires dot the land, alongside a wealth of caves, barrows, mines, and goblin warrens.

To the west, Anvil rules a vast reach of the Abecean Sea, spattered with islands, dungeons, and yet more quest content. The largest of Anvil's islands, Stirk Isle, has been entirely overhauled since the pre-alpha release of Project Cyrodiil, and now hosts a dense concentration of quests both within and outside the new town of Charach. Taking full advantage of TESIII's robust underwater gameplay, players will discover an entirely new world beneath the waves, with new coral reefs, sea creatures, dungeons, and treasures to be found on the seafloor.

Like Tamriel Rebuilt and Skyrim: Home of the Nords, Project Cyrodiil is a fully-realized, fully-playable fan-made expansion to TESIII: Morrowind. Players may travel to Cyrodiil at any level, and at any stage in their character's journey. Like the original game, our quest content is designed to maximize roleplay and choice, and to immerse players in the world and the culture of its people.

Besides the dozens of standalone miscellaneous quests, Abecean Shores includes a full palette of faction questlines. Players will encounter some familiar factions from Morrowind, like the Thieves Guild, Fighters Guild, and Mages Guild, but you'll also find dynamic new factions, including the Itinerant Priests and the Kingdom of Anvil itself. Altogether, Abecean Shores includes over 160 quests, guaranteeing dozens of hours of playtime.

Bethesda fans will no doubt recognize Anvil from The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, where it featured as a quest hub. While we have taken some aesthetic inspiration from the Mediterranean style of that game's Anvil city, and a select few characters are shared, the
